Facebook to allow animated GIF-like images as profile pics

MENLO PARK, Calif. -- Facebook is making some changes to user profiles.

The Menlo Park company announced that you will soon be able to use a 7-second looping video as your profile picture.

Users will also be able to select a temporary profile picture and have it change back at a specific time.

There are also new controls over what people can see when visiting their profile.

Facebook says people visit profiles 4 billion times a day.
